Chapter 3: The Fall

At this moment, somewhere in space. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Suddenly, the starlight began to converge, and the normal space slowly distorted. Within seconds of the space warp appearing, a space vortex gradually takes shape at the distorted location.

The space vortex is neither big nor small, and it doesn't seem to be harmful, except that it is slowly rotating. After a slow spin for a while, its speed suddenly increased. At this moment, a black stick-like object emerged from the vortex.

"-- They didn't take care of the ship for you." Along with the stick-like object appeared the second half of Atlas's sentence, which was followed by a bland report from the Voyager:

"The Voyager has left anomalous space and entered the normal universe. Locating - Unable to determine the exact coordinates of the spacecraft. ”

"Coming out?!" At the same time as the Voyager reported, Atlas also noticed a change in the space around her, and she blurted out in disbelief. Her first reaction was, "Where is this?" After comparison, the little girl quickly came to the same conclusion as the Voyager - the ship's current location was not recorded in the available information at all.

"Did you get to a strange place?" After coming to this conclusion, Atlas's first reaction was to worry, "It would be bad if there were no normal star systems around, and the current state of the spacecraft would not be able to fly any long distances." ”

As soon as she realized this, the little girl sensed that the ship's current state seemed to be a little inappropriate through the few remaining detection devices on the periphery of the Voyager. However, due to the severe damage to the detection equipment, it took several seconds for her to accurately determine the status of the Voyager. What Atlas didn't expect was that after re-entering normal space, the Voyager at this time actually maintained a high speed and flew forward.

After observing for a while, the little girl was even more surprised to find that the spacecraft was not only flying forward, but even slowly increasing its speed. After learning this information, Atlas immediately went to confirm the status of the main engine, but did not get any feedback from the main engine to start it. Suddenly, she had a bad feeling.

This thought only existed for a few seconds before the front of the ship seemed to hit something and began to shake violently. Immediately afterward, the detection equipment outside the spacecraft belatedly transmitted a terrifying message to Atlas - there was a planetary-level massive object directly in front of the spacecraft, and now under the influence of the gravitational field of that massive object, Voyager was accelerating in its direction.

At this time, from the perspective of space, you can see that behind the Voyager, which is still flying at high speed, a space vortex is slowly disappearing. And in the direction directly opposite the exit of the vortex, which is also in front of the ship, a huge planet is standing in the way. No one could have imagined that Voyager would appear in this position in space.

At this time, there is not much time for Atlas to react. As an artificial intelligence, when she learned that there was a planet in front of the spacecraft, she immediately made the most correct response - that is, trying to change the direction of the Voyager's flight.

But it is a pity that although the little girl has already had this idea at this moment, she is powerless. Because the small boosters on the outside of the Voyager used to adjust the attitude of the ship have long been left in the previous attacks of the spherical battleships. Only a few faint beams of flame can now be seen in the ship's head-down position, trying to exert their power in an attempt to change the ship's direction, but it is clear that this is almost impossible.

"Work hard!" Atlas couldn't help but shout, "At least change the direction of the people, don't just bump into it." ”

The little girl's voice seemed to really give the boosters power, and the originally faint flames seemed to have really gotten bigger. Of course, this is not the case.

"State of emergency! Emergency! A massive star has been detected ahead and the ship is about to collide with it. Emergency plans are activated, and avoidance of the stars is to be the first priority. There was no response from the highest authority and the first level of authority, and the ship was about to forcibly take over control of the Voyager. A few seconds after saying this, Atlas's voice rang out again, "Control of the ship has been taken over, and the booster has been activated." Warning, the number of boosters available is insufficient to avoid impacts. ”

In space, the iconic red light that can only be seen by friction with the atmosphere has begun to appear around the Voyager, which is rapidly falling towards the surface of the planet, but the spacecraft is still falling at an angle of nearly 60 degrees. If the Voyager continues to fall on this trajectory, not to mention the crew above, even the ship itself will be shattered. It is even possible that the ship will not be able to hold out to touch the ground, because under the air resistance, a large amount of debris has been scattered from the already broken hull, and even the main engine in the tail has begun to crumble.

Inside the Voyager, the voice of the main engine still resounded throughout the command module, "Warning! Insufficient thrust! Booster overload! Warn! Insufficient thrust! "And Atlas, who has lost control of the spaceship, can only be there to think of ways to do things in a hurry.

"That's right, little sister, throw the booster out and detonate it." Just when the Voyager was powerless, the little girl suddenly remembered the method they had just used to escape from the enemy.

"Received an unknown solution, and is judging the probability of success of this solution." A few seconds later, the Voyager came up with the result, "The probability of success is about thirty percent, which is higher than the previous plan, but the new plan will cause damage to the hull." ”

"When is it, I still care about this, I can change direction. Can any damage be greater than the damage of a falling ship? Atlas shouted at the Voyager.

"The plan passed." This time the Voyager itself made the right choice, "about to abandon the booster, for the best effect, set the detonation one second after the disengagement." Please be prepared for protection and shock resistance. ”

As soon as the words fell, several boosters detached from the front of the Voyager. No sooner had they left the ship than the boosters exploded. At that moment, the front half of the ship seemed to hit a soft cushion and suddenly stopped. And it was this pause that changed the direction of the Voyager's flight so much......
